Question 2701 Deck General

The correct answer is A) 2 B-II fire extinguishers must be in the machinery space of a 75-foot long fishing vessel propelled by engines with 2000 brake horsepower. According to the regulations, vessels between 65 and 150 feet in length that are propelled by machinery of 2000 horsepower or less must have a minimum of 2 B-II fire extinguishers in the machinery space. Since the given vessel is 75 feet long and has 2000 brake horsepower, the requirement for 2 B-II fire extinguishers in the machinery space applies. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not match the specific regulatory requirement for this vessel size and horsepower.
